Traces: A collective showcase of artworks co-created by artists from Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, University of the Arts Singapore (NAFA, UAS) with patients of Jurong Community Hospital (JCH), during the 2-month Artist-in- Residence programme in JCH

8 AM | 8 December 2025 Ng Teng Fong General Hospital, Tower A, 1 Jurong East Street 21, Singapore, 609606

Featuring clay sculptures, beadwork, sticker collages, and textured compositions, the exhibition reflects on memory, repetition, and the quiet power of shared experience. Working closely with patients, the artists use playful approaches—such as storytelling, beading, and hands-on craft-making—to co-create vibrant series of artworks that celebrate the resilience, wisdom, humour, and lived experience of pioneers.

Commemorating SG60, this exhibition stands as a tribute to them and to the power of art in building community, healing, and remembrance.
